User Reviews for Alto's Odyssey

Photo mode feature request

Before I get into it, I wanted to start off by saying that I never thought that there could be anything better than Alto’s Adventure, but here we are, 3 years later with the most beautiful mobile game I have ever laid my eyes on. My artist heart soars at every gradual change of scenery and color scheme. I am so grateful for the photo mode and after just a few days of having this absolute masterpiece of a game, I already have a huge pile of beautiful yet diverse photos. I just have one simple request for photo mode: PLEASE let there be an option to toggle/remove effects and items from the photo. The glowing coins, magnets, lotuses, and their corresponding effects are almost always distracting in the photo, which is incredibly frustrating. An option to toggle/remove Alto and birds of paradise would be ideal too, for this same reason. That’s the only thing I would change about this game, but I think it’s very important. Please, please make it happen in a future update! <3

Absorbing, Beautiful, Simple—and Innocent

First, Altos Odyssey works as a game. If you want to forget your troubles for a while and become absorbed in another world, you will find no better escape then this game. (As with other means of escaping one’s troubles, it does tempt one to over-indulge.) Second, it is simply beautiful: both the artwork and the music are first rate. They would capture your attention outside the context of the game. Third, it is a very well-designed computer application. Glitches are few, the interface is simple and intuitive, and one never feels lost. Finally, unlike many games, it does not invite you into an unhealthy fantasy. You don’t shoot, much less kill, anything. You don’t break anything except rock or two, and if you annoy a lemur, well he seems to enjoy chasing you. So instead of letting you escape into an adolescent dream of power and domination, as many games do, Alto’s Odyssey lets you escape into a dream of ever-increasing skill and the joyful experience of flying ever-more confidently. How lovely!I do have reservations about the wingsuit, which doesn’t work as well as the rest of the game or even make sense within the context of the game, but that is about my only quibble.

Alto’s Odyssey

I have played the first one back on 2015. I love the graphics that it plays very smoothly in my device. It took me 2 years to complete all achievements when I got a news that this game is having a part 2. Although, there’s no need to play the first one because there’s no story. You make the story with your imagination. Characters are very unique and you have to use them at your advantage to complete challenges along the way. Friendly advice, upgrade your magnet to be able to use it longer to rack up those coins. Since this game doesn’t have an in app purchase which makes me happy because this will make the game much more enjoyable and a good way to kill time. Whether you’re traveling from one point to another, waiting for appointments, taking a dump, you name it. The team creating this game may have pushed the actual release date but I really don’t mind. It just shows that they’re putting a lot if effort in this just to make it worth your while in purchasing this game. I assure you, this game is fun. That’s why I’m giving this a 5-star review. Good job!

Visual problems

It’s hard to see during the day because there’s not enough differentiation between actual obstacles and the background scenery. At night, it’s almost impossible to see Alto. Additionally, the game zooming in and out every time you jump, the bird that follows you right above your head that is the same size as Alto, and the (to my memory) smaller size of Alto just add up to a very visually frustrating experience. It’s just hard to make out what’s happening on screen. I really liked the first game, and wanted to like this too, it’s just hard to focus on the playing when you can’t really see anything. I can’t imagine how visually impaired people could play this. Maybe all this is because I’m playing on a phone, and it’s different on an iPad, I don’t know. I completed Alto 1, and I appreciate the added game elements of the sequel; of course the music is fantastic as usual. I just didn’t find this sequel to be as accessible as the first due to the visual problems laid out above. I eagerly look forward to the next release from this game developer, whether it be another “Alto” installment or something new entirely.

Perfect Sequel

I had no idea this game came out until I was looking for a game that was similar to the original. Altos Adventure was one of the most beautiful and serene games that I’ve ever played and after beating that one, I was looking for something similar and luckily for me, Altos Odyssey came out. Odyssey is good because it drops certain parts of the last game that it could do without (namely the llamas), and builds upon the best parts of the game (power ups, wingsuit, biomes, etc). As the description suggests, the game is extremely easy to play, but difficult to master, as in the higher levels you almost need to assume what is ahead of you to complete certain challenges. You pay one price and its yours for life, which I would gladly pay again without hesitation. The only improvement in the game would be the new “Mysterious Radio” power-up. Every time I get the radio, my character is moving too fast for me to pick them up, and by the time they get on my screen, I’ve already passed them. Maybe tweaking the drop speed to character speed would remedy this issue. Otherwise the game is literally perfect, mechanically and visually.

Beautiful and Immersive by Design yet Shockingly Simple

What a game! Been playing Alto’s Odyssey for over a year now and have loved every second of it. Very rarely do game devs create that is so visually intricate yet easy to learn and worth coming back to over and over again, yet Snowman has checked all the boxes. It’s a nice game to play on long car rides or flights, as I’ve found it’s a great escape from the real world as you are hooked by the serene soundtrack and stunning scenery. As I’ve played Odyssey I’ve come to appreciate the constantly changing weather patterns and daylight cycles that can even affect how well I perform.Though it’s a 5-star game in my books, one suggestion I have is to remove the character Sumatra entirely or replace her with another character that has his/her own unique attribute. Once you’ve unlocked Sumatra the game becomes very easy, and personally I enjoy the challenges presented with each character (Paz’s extremely slow backflips but great momentum, Maya’s low momentum but swift backflips, etc). In addition to this, the challenges could be altered so some are more specific to certain characters, and thus create incentives to use each of them.

Still worth getting!

Hello, I would like to share my story with the game that I believe is a little bit more unique than most other players. As some of you may know, Alto’s Odyssey is the sequel to Alto’s Adventure, which was first published in 2015. I played AA (Alto’s Adventure), and fell in love with it, however I never purchased it or AO (Alto’s Odyssey) until recently. This was because I first played the two on a hacked client which allowed me to play for free. Since it was a hacked client, it meant that my data on the game would be wiped whenever the client had to shift to a new site or whatever they did when they risked being exposed. I played AA and AO over and over and over again but never became bored of either, which made me start to think; “hey, maybe this game is worth buying”. I had never gotten past level 30 on either game because of how often the client had to switch and that frustrated me, to the point where I stopped playing both of them, up until 2022. I decided to buy them on a whim because I had forgotten then remembered AO and had felt quite nostalgic about it. Buying this game and playing for the first time in years was an amazing feeling and I can confidently say I have thoroughly enjoyed every moment, this game is worth the $5 you spend on it, without a doubt. P.S: canyons best biome

Phenomenal

This game is absolutely stunning, visually and in terms of gameplay. It took me a little bit to warm up to the game before I completely fell in love with it and it's beauty; just like when I was visiting actual deserts in New Mexico. The weather and day and night cycles are gorgeous, the stars and moon in the background are so beautiful and I appreciate the blue and red shifted stars which add just another touch to the game. The sandstorms are so fun and the lightning strikes are so pretty, and don't even get me started on the sunsets. As for the gameplay; I was worried that it would just be a repeat of Altos Adventure, but its so much more- I have so much fun jumping off a wall and bouncing onto a balloon all the while doing like seven back flips (past quadruple or quintuple is just says bback flip). All around this is a great game, easily a favourite which will keep its place on my phone. I was worried it wouldn't be worth the 4.99, (but coming from someone who is stingy with money) thrust me it is worth it. P.S. I miss the Llamas they are such good boys ♡

Brings back memories...

This game is by far the very best paid infinite run game I’ve ever played, definitely worth the money on this one, there are no problems that I’ve run into thus far, and I just feel so nostalgic when playing this game, it reminds me of living with my mom and how I would play this during the nights me and my siblings were home alone while she (my mom) was working. This might be kinda sappy, but this game makes me feel strangely comforted whilst the world burns outside our window and also because I can’t live with my mom at the moment because of split parent issues, and I miss her very, very much, but knowing I have a piece of her with me on an everyday item of mine is the best I could wish for. But anyway, I just overall feel relaxed and happy with the look, feel, and sound of the entire game. Also, if you feel like you have problems with this game on your phone, then as long as an iPad is signed into your iCloud account (or something else, maybe iTunes) you can download it for free on that iPad. Trust me I bet it’ll be a way greater experience. And for the developer(s) of this game, props to you! Great work 🙂👍

A Simple, yet beautiful platformer

I grew up playing Altos Adventure, so when I heard about the development of its sequel, Altos Odyssey, I was counting down the days until it’s release! Like its predecessor, Odyssey is incredibly immersive and absolutely stunning in every way. It’s extremely easy to play, but offers an ever changing landscape and new challenges to always make the game exciting. As an indie game (and a newer one at that), it does have its flaws and bugs. But the developers are constantly improving the performance. Currently, the game shuts of your background audio as you enter the game (although I’ve heard that the developers are working on this issue). With its catchy music that’s never always the same, I’m fine with that. However, if you prefer listening to your own media whilst tapping away, I would instead download the critically acclaimed Altos Adventure, which offers that feature. Overall, the stunning art, cute characters, and enticing challenges, combined with the simple, easy gameplay, makes this amazing app worth every penny. As a long time Alto addict, I can definitely say that you will adore this game.
